Hi David,
        Really appreciate your suggestions about Xen IOAPIC:)
Your patch solves the issue, but it will break a coming patch
set to enable hierarchy irqdomain on x86.
        To enable hierarchy irqdomain on x86, need to build
irqdomains in following order:
1) create irqdomain for CPU vector domain
2) create irqdomains for interrupt remapping unit if interrupt
   remapping is enabled.
3) create irqdomains for IOAPIC/MSI/HPET etc.

Function arch_early_ioapic_init() is called before initializing
interrupt remapping subsystem. So creating IOAPIC irqdomains in
arch_early_ioapic_init() will break hierarchy irqdomain with
interrupt remapping enabled. I will post the x86 hierarchy
irqdomain patch soon.

So could you please help to advice on:
1) Is IOAPIC irqdomain needed for PV?
2) Is IOAPIC irqdomain needed for HVM?
3) Is IOAPIC irqdomain needed for Dom0?
4) What's the proper hook point to create IOAPIC irqdomain for Xen
   UP systems?
I really need to get more understanding of Xen interrupt subsystem:)
Thanks!
Gerry
